If there are other good overview resources that go over the
pre-2009 (I think the Wired article marks an epoch) history, I'm

<p>I wrote about European hackerspaces I was visiting while
organising "hackerspace tours" <br />

<p><a href="https://wiki.techinc.nl/Hackerspaces_tour">https://wiki.techinc.nl/Hackerspaces_tour</a></p>
<p>And about differences between East-Europe & West-Europe
hackerspaces... <br />

</p>
<p>And then there are more articles about Detroit & hackers ;-)

<p>And I am copying Patrice, who is a living legend & an

add some more wisdom about the early days. <br />
